General Tools & Instruments, the leading supplier of specialty hand tools and electronic test instruments for the professional and the do-it-yourself hobbyist, announces a new collection of glass magnifiers to supplement their UltraTech™ line of premium hand tools. These glass magnifiers all feature a polished optical glass lens in a metal frame and are available in a complete range of sizes from 2”(50mm) to 4.5”(115mm).

Improved Performance:
All of the magnifiers feature a distortion free round lens and utilize the patented Versa-GripTM handle. The magnifiers are available in 2”(50mm), 2.5”(65mm), 3”(75mm), 3.5”(90mm), 4”(100mm), and 4.5”(115mm). These products are used by engineers, mechanics, inspectors, lab technicians, tool makers, instrument assemblers, jewelers, do-it-yourselfers, hobby and crafts people and were designed to meet the rigors of demanding jobs in laboratory quality control, inspection and manufacturing assembly functions.

The UltraTech™ line is a new and innovative product line, currently consisting of over 150 different premium hand tools. The line is based on the exclusive Versa-GripTM handle which features a new, ergonomic design and offers the versatility of multiple grip positions.

“We are extremely excited about this addition of magnifiers to the UltraTech Tool System,” said Joe Ennis, President and CEO of General. “General is transitioning to a product development company and our recent corporate and product acquisitions embody General’s commitment of providing new and unique product offerings on a continual basis.”
